I was hoping for some cash for Xmas but didn't get any, so I guess it's time to do this again. The end is in sight, but we're not quite there yet.
We're about $300 short of being able to cover rent, the car payment, and baby necessities for the next 2wks.

Good news, y'all! I start a new job in early January! Yay! Beyond relieved at the prospect of a regular paycheck again.
The bad news, I won't get a full paycheck until the end of January when February's bills are already due.
Help? 💜 Thank you, friends.

I got a very pretty set of interchangeable knitting needles, a comfy pair of slippers, and a set of markers for my coloring book from MIL. B got some clothes and a few more toys.

It's the last day of Xmas at my house. We're going to MIL's this afternoon and then it will finally be over.

Between my birthday, Xmas, and New Year's, I always spend a lot of December thinking about the past. Not nostalgia, more like giving my grudges some enrichment time.
Last night was ages 16-21. YIKES. I could write at least seven books about those years alone and how they landed me exactly here.

I don't want to quote the "what you accomplished in 2025" post because mine is kind of dark. But:
I didn't die on the table.
I got a doctor to listen before my son died of an infection.
I quit breastfeeding while I was ahead and he's on the growth chart.
I didn't get fired. Or divorced. Or kms.

I should not have to work today. I should just be in bed crying instead of doing it at my desk.

The day is over and I can be honest now. At least M and B had a good Xmas. I've had more bad ones than good ones, so what's one more?

We don’t need AI to “be creative” for us; we need a world in which there is time and space to wonder, joke and play with words. To fuck around with color and texture, to experiment with an intriguing sound, without the need to immediately convert process and artifact into engagement to stay solvent.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas is the best Xmas song not just because it's good but it also sounds like something a mom would say as she throws the whole fucking ham in the garbage while having a nervous breakdown

B had to stop for a nap with two boxes left to go 😅 (three presents, I combined two similar ones to cut down how much he had to do)

To everyone who's Christmas looks like just hanging around the house, not really doing anything "festive", for whatever reason whether it be due to not celebrating or disability or illness or ptsd related things?
You're valid, and your Christmas is not sad. It's relaxing and cozy.

Look….. I know I’m an adult so it’s different…… but I feel like this year’s Christmas is the least Christmas-y I’ve ever experienced.
Personally, because of all of the horror we’ve had this year. But also commercially, I feel like even companies are phoning it in or not even acknowledging it.

I would really love some Christmas magic and all that, but instead I just get to feel the crushing weight of every single thing that's happened this whole year.
